Easter. Time to watch, rather than eat, spring lambs bouncing around green fields. Time to eat gently steamed, lightly buttered green spears of asparagus, decent glazed ham for Sunday lunch, or perhaps a whole baked fish. Hot cross buns, simnel cake ... and for those of us who don't like fruit in our puddings, there are, of course, all manner of things chocolate.

Eggs, bunnies and bars, from the sickly sweet (and to my mind, quite addictive) mainstream chocolate, through the likes of Divine and Green and Black's to the inner sanctum of deep dark artisanal pleasure from people like Paul Young, Easter is the perfect excuse to wallow in chocolate.

It's traditional to organise a taste test around now (or a month ago if you've print deadlines to worry about) and we want to spread the pleasure of participation. Surely what a Word of Mouth chocolate taste test needs is, well, WordofMouthers. Where could you find a better qualified bunch to conscientiously assess the relative merits of heaps of different chocolates and come up with a WordofMouth verdict?

It's all happening on Thursday night in the vicinity of Kings Cross. I can only apologise to those of us who are not within easy reach of the delights of Kings Cross but the budget wouldn't stretch to having multiple events around the country. Though we hope to manage that to a greater or lesser extent via the medium of food festivals later in the year.

In order to come along we need you to post a comment below (be clear about wanting to come) and we'll be in touch with as many people as we can possibly find space for via the email address you used to register for the site (so do check your email on Tuesday and Wednesday). Be warned, there may well be some sort of filming or other multimedia geekery going on, so come in disguise if you want to preserve your anonymity. On the other hand, if you'd rather, you can make yourself a name badge and wear your handle with pride (as predicted, we're not going to get round to making badges for everyone!).

Due to the level of interest, there may not be room for everyone and it's likely that we will have to restrict people who have asked to bring friends to making that just one other person. If there are any other restrictions, priority will go to regular commenters and people who have expressed interest early on. We can't guarantee a place - unless you're a WoM regular - and, rest assured, WoM regulars, we know who you are!

Anyway, put it in your diaries: CHOCOLATE: Next Thursday night, April 2 at around 6.30pm until the chocolate runs out. Or melts. Chocolate will abound; it will mostly be round (and if that sad little poem hasn't been ruthlessly culled by the subs, I can only apologise).

Come with your tastebuds primed, your imagination fired and your hands clean - or cleanish, given they'll end up quite sticky and melty. Hopefully we'll have persuaded someone to come along and do some matching with a few bottles of something too. Don't plan on being late or the chocolate will be gone.

So, let us know if you'd like to come in the comments below and we'll email you the exact location before the event.
